NFL Week 17 Fantasy TE & DEF Rankings




To differentiate between all the "Start 'Ems" on my Fantasy Football Start Em, Sit Em page, you can check out the Weekly Fantasy Football Rankings, so you can figure out whom to start between Player X and Player Y.

Below are my fantasy tight end and defense rankings and a set of links for my positional Weekly NFL Fantasy Football Rankings. Keep in mind that this list is for this week only; not the entire rest of the season.

The rankings are based on a traditional scoring system. Compensate for PPR and touchdown leagues accordingly.

I'm not going to compile kicker rankings. Kickers are way too difficult to predict. Just go with a solid kicker on at least an average offense.

I don't know what 2 do about Gates this wk? Its a 12team league, so not a ton on the market, but a few guys who i'm consiering.. Dennis Pitta, Tony Moeaki, and Benjamin Watson, and Coby Fleener are all out there.. Should i just stick with Gates here? Gates has been the biggest TE bust all season long.. Its hard to expect him to crack double digits even in the PPR league i'm in..

UGH!!!!

How do u got the browns defense down so much? The Chiefs just had a interupted practice week with a Funeral and all that , and a very draining win last wk as well, with what they were playing with.. I think thre in for a huge letdown game this wk, and the browns are gonna be all over them.. I think the browns have a big defensive game in store..
